Popis: | To compare the utility of abdominopelvic fluid volume measurements with established computed tomography signs for refractory post-traumatic abdominal compartment syndrome. This retrospective observational cohort study included 64 consecutive adult trauma patients with preoperative CT and diagnosis of refractory abdominal compartment syndrome requiring decompressive laparotomy at a level I trauma referral center between 2004 and 2014. We hypothesized that abdominal fluid volume measurements would be more predictive of the need for early laparotomy than previously described conventional CT signs of refractory ACS. Abdominopelvic fluid volumes were determined quantitatively using semi-automated segmentation software. The following conventional imaging parameters were recorded: abdominal anteroposterior:transverse ratio (round belly sign); infrahepatic vena cava diameter; distal abdominal aortic diameter; largest single small bowel wall diameter; hydronephrosis, inguinal herniation; and mesenteric and body wall edema. For outcome analysis, patients were stratified into two groups: those who underwent early ( |
